Motorcycle riders rightly think about two important aspects when buying engine protection bars: their appearance and the amount of protection they offer.
So anyone looking for engine protection bars for their R 1250 GS will find various options available. There are those that, in some cases, look like balcony railings or hay turners with their heavily built components, and which give the impression that, in a battle between weight and mechanical stability, weight will win. Added to this is the fact that the protruding shapes can quickly cause an unpleasant, if not dangerous levering of the machine as a result of catching or getting caught in branches in off-road use.
At Wunderlich, they basically pay attention to ensuring that accessory components fit in harmoniously with the concept of the vehicle in question, that the design matches the bike‘s contours and that it skilfully accentuates them. At Wunderlich, they call this an integrated design.
Heavy and stout and big are not necessarily safer.
If you take a look at the engine protection bars from Wunderlich, you‘ll see they offer a doubly impressive convince: the design and protective function both are right!
The actual design of each set of Wunderlich engine protection bars is coordinated with the engine‘s contours. The pipe diameter is optimised so that maximum protection and optimised weight are harmonised. The craftsman finish is perfect for the high-quality design.
In terms of their structure, the engine protection bars for the GS size offer the feature that, in the event of a crash or a toppling over, the forces that are generated are distributed perfectly over the protective bars and specifically to the support points, reducing load peaks and avoiding secondary damage to the motorbike. A company that puts so much effort into a component will also take great care when choosing its materials: the protection bars are made from 25-mm precision stainless steel piping, which are precision-shaped on CNC pipe bending machines and then cleanly welded in welding moulds.
The engine protection bars are available in stainless steel, glass bead blasted and electro polished, in black, HP blue and - a colour that is very popular at the moment - white. The coloured versions are powder coated.
